Spotify Mobile (Android) Last.fm Error - Mobile APP won't scrobble

[crystalem]

My last.fm scrobbling used to work just fine on my phone until about a month ago. Now it won't scrobble anything and everytime I go in to put my username and password it gives me a notification that says "Last.fm Error - wrong username or password". I haven't changed my last.fm password at all, it's always been the same so I know I don't have the username or password wrong & it also scrobbles just fine on my desktop spotify. This is driving me nuts. It's important for me to be able to scrobble on my phone. 😞

What worked for me though was not fakeuser/fakepassword but removing a space in the end of my password.

Once I changed my password to a password without a space in the end it worked.

But then again it could be pointing to some caching issue in Spotify Android App and what actually worked was another password change...

This completely worked for me. Thanks janvanhoef!

Problem in my situation was that I had two spacebars at the end of my password. It worked in the desktop version, but something went wrong when I tried to sign in with phone. I changed my password and now it doesn't have any spacebars. Tried it with new password and it worked.

Looks like Last.fm changed requirements for password strength, so make sure you password meets new rules. That helped me, because I signed up for last.fm long ago and my pass was oldstyle.
